Prioritizing safety and accuracy in the chemical plant
Remote connectivity allows for configuration and data acquisition at a safe distance for hazardous process environments
The right measurement instrumentation can provide accuracy and safety
Chemical plants can have hazardous environments that risk personnel safety. Instrumentation can be located in hard to access areas requiring ladders or scaffolding and opening the transmitter cover may not be ideal in hazardous locations. To run an efficient plant, measurement accuracy is fundamental to control many chemical reactions and processes, however process conditions like two-phase flow systems can make measurement inaccurate. Coriolis flow meters offer reliability by providing a maintenance-free sensor with no moving parts and low frequency sensor output that provides high mass flow accuracy. Troubleshooting, configuring and commissioning a device can be done safely by leveraging transmitters with remote connectivity, avoiding the need for technicians to directly access the device to hook up wires. Emerson’s portfolio features solutions with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® connectivity such as the Micro Motion 4700 Coriolis Config I/O Transmitter featuring Bluetooth technology.
